Unique architecture-the Hamburg Cruise Center
The Hamburg Cruise Center, designed by Renner Hainke Wirth, the roof by architectural engineer Werner Sobek, is the gateway to Hamburg city centre for passengers from all over the world.
The architectural idea behind the 1,200 square meter arrivals hall is two familiar seagoing elements – the container and the sail – that been ingeniously combined. The walls are made of stacked multicolored freight containers and topped with a dynamically shaped sail-like roof.
While the main role of the Hamburg Cruise Center is to handle cruiseships, various different types of events and functions for up to 800 people can be held there outside the cruising season.
The Katharinen school next to Katharinen church, designed by Spengler and Wiescholek, will be completed in the Spring of 2009.
The elementary school and daycare facility is reachable on foot across the park for many children. The classrooms face the park and, in addition to the fully developed sub areas on the school grounds, the park can also be used for school activities.
One ambition of the school is to open its doors towards the district and to offer use of its own rooms in the evening, to different groups and activities from the district including a generously designed sports hall.
